Mark was accepted by the Royal College of Art to do an MA in ceramics & glass having completed a B.A. at Buckinghamshire College in the same subject.

Mark's glass designs are concerned with breaking away from the traditional concepts of cut glass. He has developed a technique of cutting, re-heating and then distorting objects to create these fascinating and beautiful examples. During the re-heating stage the cut areas inform the distortion, hence the glass itself ultimately dictates its own final movements and shape.

In 2003 Mark was the winner of two RSA awards, the Student Design Award, Homeware section and the Wally Ollins Opportunity Award.
